Unique Student Identifier (USI)
A Unique Student Identifier (USI) is a reference number made up of numbers and letters that gives you
access to your USI account. A USI will allow your USI account to be linked to the National Vocational
Education and Training (VET) Data Collection, allowing you to see all of your training results from all
providers, including all completed training units and qualifications.
The USI will make it easier for you to find and collate your VET achievements into a
single authenticated transcript. It will also ensure that your VET records are not lost.
The USI is available online and at no cost. This USI will stay with you for life and be recorded with any
nationally recognised VET course that is completed from 1st January 2015.
Under legislation, training organisations are not permitted to issue a statement of attainment or a
qualification unless the student has provided a USI. Student Identifiers Act 2014
Further information on the USI can be obtained at: www.usi.gov.au and in Appendix 5
USI Provision Process for Unity College Students
Year 10 students and new students to Years 11 & 12 are required to supply a USI number prior to being
enrolled into a VET course. You will need to follow the steps in Appendix 3 to be able to successfully
complete the application. Once you have completed the process, your USI will appear on screen and you
will receive an email confirming your USI. Please promptly forward this email to:
[email protected] at Unity College. The number will then be stored on the BCE student
database. Alternatively, you may prefer to do this privately. You will still need to forward the confirmation
email to the email address above. Regardless, the following permissions relate to the Unique Student

Susan Bates & Leila Flannery – Learning Support
Sherry Christie – VET & Pathways Administrative Support Officer
Language, Literacy and Numeracy Support
All VET subjects have embedded units of competency from a Training Package and as such you will find
that basic literacy/numeracy elements have been incorporated. This should help you learn these basic
literacy/numeracy components more readily, as they are being delivered and assessed in the context of
the VET area of your choice.
In addition to the above you will receive further support in English or Essential English, and Essential
Mathematics or General/Specialist Mathematics/Mathematical Methods, depending on which one/s you
have chosen to do.
Behaviour Management Policy and Attendance
Every family in the College has access to the Behaviour Management Policy. Please make sure that you
read it as its application is also relevant to all School VET programs. Attendance in VET classes/activities
complies with the College’s Attendance policy.
Flexible Learning and Assessment Procedures
All VET students will be fully informed of the VET assessment process and requirements and will have the
right to appeal.
The mode of delivery will be specific to each subject area. A combination of the following will occur:
Face-to-face Online delivery and/assessment Blended delivery
Private study Tutorials, if required The following information represents some general information about the VET assessment process.
Competency-based Assessment
The College will comply with the assessment guidelines from the relevant Training Package or accredited course. Assessment will be competency-based (See Appendix 1: Definitions)
Essentially, students are considered to be competent when you are able to apply your knowledge and skills to successfully complete activities in a range of situations and environments, in accordance with the standard of performance expected in the workplace, as specified in the training package or VET accredited course.
Principles of Assessment
The College’s delivery and assessment of VET courses is designed to promote valid, reliable, flexible and fair assessment that is also informative in its context and purpose. These principles comply with the College’s Assessment Policy in the College Diary and on the College website www.uc.qld.edu.au.
This means that:
a) You will be given clear and timely information on assessment, including:
VET Student Handbook
Version: November 2018 Acknowledgement: ViSE
Review: November 2019 Authorisation: Gillian Meyers
Page 7 of 20
• advice about the assessment methods
• assessment procedures
• the performance criteria against which you will be assessed
• when and how you will receive appropriate feedback
• the mechanism for appeal.
b) Sufficient evidence will be gathered to enable a fair and accurate judgment of your competence.
c) The assessment approach chosen will cater for your language, literacy and numeracy needs.
d) Reasonable adjustments will be made to the assessment strategy to ensure equity for all students, while maintaining the integrity of the assessment outcomes as stated in the Training Package.
e) Opportunities for feedback and review via surveys of all aspects of assessment will be provided.
f) Clearly documented mechanisms for appeal against assessment processes and decisions will be available.
g) All students have access to reassessment on (informal) appeal.
Flexibility
All VET courses are flexible and they are designed to give every student an opportunity to demonstrate
competence. This means that if you have an identified need, the conditions of the assessment task that you
do may be changed. For example, a learning support aide may read the tasks to you or they may act
as a scribe. These conditions for assessment must still comply with training package requirements. Your
teacher, together with the Learning Support staff, will decide what adjustment needs to be made. In
making an adjustment, the rigor or difficulty level of the task will not change as you will still need to be
judged ‘competent’ in order to gain the qualification. The fact that the conditions, under which the task
was performed has changed, will be noted on your assessment task sheet.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
When you commence a VET program, you may think there are some units of competency you can already
do. Your current knowledge and abilities may make you competent in these units without having to do the
assessment. You can apply for ‘recognition’ for those specific units of competency. If you do, you will need
to provide evidence that you can in fact already do these particular tasks. You may need to perform a
‘skills test’ to support your claim.
Process
If you believe that you have sound reasons to apply for recognition, ask your teacher to guide you through the process listed below.
1. Discuss the recognition process with your teacher.
2. Retain a copy of the Recognition of Prior Learning Policy from the VET Coordinator
3. Ensure that you understand the full recognition application process, including the Appeals process.
4. Collect evidence of your prior learning from a variety of sources. Evidence can take many forms,
and will usually include such things as:
• letters or testimonials from employers
• photographs, videos, reports
• awards, certificates and qualifications
VET Student Handbook

Review: November 2019 Authorisation: Gillian Meyers
Page 8 of 20
5. Discuss your self-assessment with your teacher. If there are full units of competency for which you
and your teacher feel recognition may be given, you will be encouraged to complete a Recognition
of Prior Learning Application Form. These can be obtained by contacting the RTO Manager or
your trainer who will assist you with this.
6. Complete and submit the Recognition of Prior Learning Application Form.
7. You will know the outcome of your application within 15 days of application.
8. Should you wish to appeal the decision, complete the Complaints and Appeals Form which you can
get from the VET Coordinator.
Note: If you have a Statement of Attainment from another Registered Training Organisation for any units of competency which are the same as those in any College VET program, you will be awarded automatic recognition and it will not be necessary for you to apply. You must make the VET teacher & Coordinator aware and provide your certification.
Complaints and Appeals
You may approach the College if you are dissatisfied with any aspect of your VET program. This includes:
• an administrative matter such as, for example, the non-issue of qualifications/ statements within
the prescribed timeline;
• another person in the school (student or teacher);
• a complaint about any aspect of the course or its delivery;
• a complaint about the results of an assessment or about the way the assessment was undertaken.
The full Policy can be accessed at Complaints and Appeals Policy on page 16-17.
Process This is the process to follow:
a) You should discuss the matter with a teacher or person in authority with whom you feel comfortable.
b) If this person does not consider the matter to be particularly serious, or where your complaint does not
relate to allegations of unlawful behaviour (e.g. assault, illegal discrimination or harassment, etc.) and you
feel comfortable to do so, you will be encouraged to raise your complaint directly with the person
concerned. You can ask for another teacher, of your choice, to be present when you do this.
c) Where you do not feel comfortable about doing this, or where the matter is of a more serious nature, you will be asked to put the complaint in writing on a Complaints and Appeals Form. A copy of this can be located in Appendix 6 of this Handbook.
d) If the complaint is about another student, the matter will then be handled by the VET Coordinator or Guidance Officer. If the complaint is about a member of staff, it will be handled by the Principal.
e) If the complaint cannot be resolved by the above procedure, then an independent party will be retained to review the complaint.
f) If the complaint will take longer than 60 calendar days to process and resolve, then you will be advised in writing of this and regular updates will be given on the progress of your complaint.
f) The person handling your complaint will:
• tell the person you are complaining about, about the complaint. He/she will be given the
opportunity to present their understanding of the matter;
• ensure that only those people who need to know about the complaint are involved/informed;

Appendix 4: USI Letter to Parents
Dear Parents/Caregivers
VET Unique Student Identifier (USI number) From 1 January 2015 the Australian Government requires all students undertaking vocational training (VET) to have a Unique Student Identifier (USI). Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) are required to collect and verify a student’s USI for the purposes of reporting on training activities or to issue an AQF certification document, such as a qualification or statement of attainment.
All students in Years 10, 11 & 12 undertaking a certificate course must apply for a USI number. It is highly recommended that all senior phase students create a USI. Your student will need valid forms of
identification as listed on the website www.USI.gov.au to be able to successfully complete the application.
Please ensure to use LEGAL NAMES ONLY.
Once students have completed the process, their USI will appear on screen and they will receive an email
confirmation. Please forward this email to [email protected] at Unity College. The number
will then be stored on the BCE student database.
Further clarifications regarding this number can be viewed in the following clip.
